2022 Panini Mosaic Prizm Shohei Ohtani Purple /49

Pulled the 2025 Topps Update HFA Nick Kurtz ripping packs at home and a couple weeks later, hit the Chrome version on a break buy-in.

A true classic! Throwing it back to my childhood, born in the late 80’s my collecting journey started in the early 90’s, oh what a time! I’m a true junk wax nerd at heart. Pulled this card as a kid and noticed the naughty word on the bat, glad I held onto it all these years. Had no idea just how iconic it would be 😅

Fun back story on this one. I’ve always liked Pete Alonso. Earlier this year, I happened to watch a documentary on Pete’s life and learned that he’s really into fishing, which made me like him even more, as I am an avid angler myself. The very next thing I did that day was rip a few packs of Topps and BOOM, I hit this Pete Alonso patch auto to /30!!

Where my Mariners fans at?! This is top of the list for my favorite pull of 2025. I’m a PNW native and have always been a Mariners fan. Couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this card slide out of a pack. This one for sure stays in the PC.
